Kaitlin Bennett became a hero of supporters of the Second Amendment when she posed at her alma mater, Kent State, for graduation photos. The 22-year-old carried both a cap that said “Come and take it” and an AR-10 rifle.

Ohio is an open-carry state; however, Kent State does not allow students to have weapons on campus, though visitors are permitted to do so. As a graduate visiting the university, she was “finally” allowed to arm herself.

Bennett describes New York as “crime-ridden city” despite crime in New York being at its lowest since the 1950s.

She also claims that New York is awful because of its gun laws preventing her from carrying a handgun, despite standing in what appears to be Hoboken, N.J. New Jersey has some of the strictest gun laws in the nation and the lowest gun death rates.

But she is correct about one thing: The pizza is so good in New York. Honestly, the best you will ever have.

Perhaps we can start focusing on the real issues at hand here. Gun control New York pizza will always be better than Chicago-style pizza.
